Hello to all the gardeners! This is my garden right now. Still harvesting padron peppers, spring onions, chard, Asian and salad greens, mooli; a couple of rows of potatoes still in the ground. 🍂🌱 #autumn #catalanpyrenees

RELEASE Dr Abu Safiya!

Drop Site @dropsitenews.com · 1d

CNN reports Israel will not release Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya as part of the ceasefire deal with Hamas. The eminent pediatrician was detained in Dec. during Israel’s raid on Kamal Adwan Hospital, after he refused to abandon patients under siege.

IF THIS IS NOT HOSTAGE TAKING, WHAT IS? Israel refuses to release Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya who insisted on staying with his patients in his bombed hospital even after his own son was murdered. Since then he has been held in one of Israel's torture facilities.

Matisse painted 'Pansies' (1903) during his ‘dark period,' as he went through near financial ruin and family scandal. He wrote of being moved by the pansy's melancholic grace; like Dutch flower painters of the 17thC, he saw the cut flower as a symbol of the vanity of human life.

Oil and gas companies are only serious about oil and gas.

Stop Rosebank @stopcambo.bsky.social · 2d

BREAKING 🚨: The world’s 250 largest oil & gas companies own 1.5% of global renewable power capacity.

Despite years of climate pledges, new research shows their real investment in clean energy remains tiny compared to fossil fuels.

Oil giants are NOT serious about the transition.

There are thousands of Palestinian people languishing - and dying - in Israeli prisons - held without charges.
We should think of them as hostages rather than prisoners. RIP Ahmad Hatem Mohammad Khudairat.

Con la excusa de reducir el papeleo, la Unión Europea está llevando a cabo una rápida y silenciosa desprotección de la naturaleza y la salud empleando leyes ómnibus.

Su receta es coger leyes ya existentes y modificarlas con un procedimiento más rápido y con menor participación que las originales.

This is a lie.

There are many criticisms you might sensibly and truthfully make of the Sentencing Council and the Sentencing Guidelines. I’ve been making them for years.

But this is an outright lie. Pure fabrication. A fraud on the public.
